Will you join me in calling on the Supreme Court to disarm domestic violence?

People subject to domestic violence restraining orders shouldn’t be allowed to own guns. Period.

I wanted to reach out to you personally about the Supreme Court case United States v. Rahimi, which the court is expected to make a decision on any day now. This case was taken up by the Supreme Court in 2023 after the Fifth Circuit struck down the decades-old federal law that prohibits people subject to domestic violence restraining orders from possessing guns. The gun lobby and other extremists are hoping that a Supreme Court ruling in Rahimi, using the 2022 Bruen decision—which requires courts to focus on the historical interpretation of the Second Amendment—will restore the gun rights of people convicted of domestic abuse. [Will you join me in calling on the Supreme Court to reinstate the ban on people convicted of domestic abuse owning guns by signing GIFFORDS’ petition?]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( With this case, countless lives are in the hands of our judicial system—particularly the lives of women—who are disproportionately impacted by domestic violence. Every year, more than 600 American women are shot and killed by intimate partners. And millions more have been threatened with a gun. I have firsthand experience, like far too many women in this country, with the devastation and trauma that can be wrought by a hateful, angry man who has access to a gun. Although my case was not related to domestic violence, I was shot by an angry man thirteen years ago. With Rahimi, the Supreme Court has a critical opportunity to demonstrate that we care about protecting women’s lives. People subject to domestic violence restraining orders shouldn’t be allowed to own guns. Period. [So please, will you join me in calling on the Supreme Court to make the right choice in the Rahimi case and ensure we protect women from domestic violence?]( Thank you for using your voice.
